Popis: Objectives: It is common to treat type 2 diabetes by regular injections of insulin. We compared the efficacy and safety of twice-daily administration of short-acting, premixed, and long-acting insulins. Methods: This was a multi-center, randomized, open-label, 52-week study. Patients were randomized to administer twice daily short-acting analog insulin (Aspart) plus a sulfonylurea (SU), premixed 70/30 analog insulin (Mix), or long-acting insulin (Detemir) plus a glinide derivative. Results: Twelve (mean baseline HbA1c 9.86±1.71%), eight (9.24±1.14%), and eight (11.26±1.81%) patients were treated with Aspart, Mix, or Detemir, respectively, for 52 weeks. After 12 weeks, the reductions in HbA1c were similar in the groups. A further significant reduction in HbA1c occurred between weeks 12 and 52 in the Detemir, but not the Aspart or Mix groups. After 52 weeks, the target of an HbA1c
